Is it me just being ridiculously stupid, naive and totally unknowledgable?

Not to mention it's actually at 3.0 (GTO-3), so the 20k has lost them horses.

In the current climate...not great way to spend your cash biggrin

£20,000 on an engine to get an extra 21 bhp over standard ? Money well spent I'd say.

Many GTOs get advertised wrongly as GTO3.

That private plate is registered to a MCC SMART PURE AUTO (LHD) COUPE 599cc (01-06-1999) PETROL.

The plate is M12 GTD and the car was Williams of Bristol demonstrator, drove it before buying mine new.
Sure it had more than 2138 miles on it back in 2003 !

Looks great but as always I have hated the interior of these cars even the new 200K one is poor. The yellow leather makes it stand out more but oh my god is that handbrake the same on all Nobles of the ilk as it looks "HUGE!"

lol, first comment my m8 said about the interior was "f***in ell your missus could have some fun with that!" handbrake cable needed adjusting it was almost vertical smile
Does look a bit ridiculous must admit, i'm getting the recess built in with the interior upgrade so people dont laugh at my massive hand brake anymore smile
